High Energy Drinks and Breastfeeding, Are They Safe? It’s getting close to the holidays, which means it’s time for even more shopping, cooking, cleaning - all while helping the little ones with their online lessons, caring for a newborn, and perhaps even working from home too. How is a mother to manage? No wonder some mothers are reaching for popular energy drinks to get an energy boost and relieve fatigue. But are energy drinks safe to consume while breastfeeding? As a general rule, consuming caffeine in moderation is considered safe for breastfeeding mothers. That means about 3 cups of coffee per day (300 - 500 mg) or a couple of energy drinks, depending on the brand. It’s important for mothers to observe their babies for signs of caffeine stimulation because some infants who are very sensitive to the effects of caffeine may exhibit a rapid heart rate, fussiness, and sleeplessness. Caffeine is a unique drug in that it has a long half-life in infants. The half-life of caffeine in a newborn is approximately 100 -120 hours. At 3-5 months of age, the half-life is decreased to 14 hours. As infants get older, they can metabolize caffeine more efficiently, and may be able to tolerate caffeine if their mothers are consuming it in beverages or foods versus showing stronger sensitivity signs
